What is Hot Stones Reflexology?

​

Hot Stones Reflexology is a technique of applying

pressure to reflex areas on the feet or hand with

heated stones to take relaxation to another level

and stimulate the body's own healing process.

The hot stones are either incorporated into a

reflexology treatment or are used for the

whole treatment.

• Significantly reduces stress and anxiety

• Improves the muscle relaxation

• Improves blood circulation and flow of energy

• Helps to promote better sleep

• Boosts immunity and the lymphatic function

​

During the treatment  large stones are used to warm and massage the legs and feet, and small stones to work reflex points and more specific areas. The treatment is extremely relaxing  and it  feels wonderful for your feet.

​

Traditionally stones have been heated in a water heater similar to a slow cooker,  however, I work with hot stone bags which does not need water and just needs to be plugged in.

 

Hot Stone massage originated in India and China and has been around for centuries; ancient civilizations believed that hot stones cleansed the body and relaxed the heart, grounding the soul and soothing the mind. As the name implies, the treatment involves using smooth stones which are heated and are used to massage the lower leg and to carry out the reflexology.

This is a wonderful treatment and is something a little different.
